Posted by anonymous | December 02, 2009 | Uncontested Divorce

Reasonable & Reliable Divorce Attorney

Bill did an excellent job of guiding me through the divorce process, explaining what I could/should expect, without trying to push me to "hold out for more." He was very respectful of my financial situation and my uncontested divorce was relatively inexpensive.
